how impending strike in shoe factory of

Another story Mr. Wright delights in is this:

Science in Farming.

Science be hanged Book. farming be blowedi.
Not a few farmers have growled it out thus pith-
lily: Science is no good to me-" This complaint
has been more loudly uttered in England than
here. although something of this sort was shot
off recently in the Connecticut Legislature The
cause Of this vituperation is that science has
failed to remedy all the farmers woes. Why
should it'll According to medical science certain
remedies will cure certain diseases. Yet meu

1t takes two for scientific farming, the
man whose researches discover the laws
OF nature, and the man who experimentally ap-
plies this knowledge. AS science does not reach
perfection in this world, its application will re-
veal defects. 1t depends upon the practical
farmers cooperation to discover these defects
and how to improve matters. The trouble has
been that the scientist and the farmers were not
in harmony Jealousy and self-conceit have raised
many barrier. 1t is time this was changed.
Agriculture has already reaped enormous bone
fits. often involuntarily, from science. Science
will not cure competition indeed it tends to pro-
mote it, but it will aid to getting greater results
with less labor. and farmers will be wise not to

The Location of the Soldiers Monument
To the Editor of the Indianapolis journal.
Nlne-tenths of the citizens OF Indiana who
know the facts in sympathy with MIR. Nell
sons views as TO the location of the soldiers
monument 1t ought not to DO in Circle Park;
it ought TO be in Military Park. No doubt the
commissioners agree to this. II they do, there
need be very little delay on account of the
change The proper plans and designs can
hardly be completed before the expiration of the
eighteen months intervening between now and
the next Legislature. There will be no trouble
in getting the necessary legislation.
In addition to the many excellent reasons
given by Mr. Nelson there is one still more i'm
portant. That the property between Mississippi
and West lying between Court and Ohio Will be
condemned and made part of the Capitol
Park, including the present Military Park. no
one seriously doubts. It is only question of
time. Every sentiment of State pride demands
it. With the soldiers monument in the west

treat it with brine to tempt stock; but to trest

salt is great mistake.
On the other hand air slaked lime will absorb
moisture, and thereby preserve hay without any
injury to its quality. l have often put on lime
so thick that it covered my boots with heavy
coating in the winter when it was pitched out;
yet the stock never refused seemed TO dislike
